I enlisted in the United States Military as a 91B, Light Wheeled Mechanic, on 20 October 2005, and currently assigned to the 326th Chemical Company, located in Huntsville, Alabama.

While deployed to Iraq I was the lead mechanic, a tower guard, and an escort.

My military awards include the Army Achievement Medal, National Defense Service Medal, Global War on Terrorism Service Medal, and the Iraq Campaign Medal.

I am a Warrior Soldier, but I am also employed as a civilian for the Army Reserve with the 81st RRC AMSA 145, as the units’ vehicle mechanic, I repair vehicles for the reserve units within my area.
